Sugar helps lesson go down - Chicago Sun-Times (11/07/07)

Our HUGE staff at Give Me Some Sugar (myself and Roxann) are totally psyched about this article. We are finally getting our name out there, all our hard work is paying off. Personally I thought it would be a small blurb about us and a link to our site. Then they asked for a recipe...then a picture was taken at my apartment...then the article was printed.
That morning I rushed to the CTA for my business meeting and picked up a copy and I saw my face on the cover. I opened up the page, and there I was, smiling back at myself. I looked around at the people waiting for the Blue Line and wondered if they had a copy and would somebody recognize me. I got nothing but a whole bunch of tired/irratated faces wondering when the subway was coming.
As I read the story I was happy with what was written. Then I got to the part where they quoted our prices and I my stomach sank. For some reason it said we charge $150 per person for a class and $65 per child. That was a HUGE mistake. That is almost triple of what we charge ($65 -75 for adults and $45-55 per child). We did not get to see what was written before it was printed so we are taking this as a life lesson. Do not get me wrong we are very happy about the article and have had a lot of positive response from friends and family.
We are hoping that the misprint on our prices will not deter people from using our company for classes and parties, so for now we are moving forward in our quest to be the premier "in-home" cooking class company of THE WORLD!
Okay my head did get a little big from the article, we will settle for Chicago.
Happy Cooking!
